Regulated Aviation

From route planning and air traffic management to forecasts for specialist aviation users or training, our products and services are designed to support improving efficiency and safety of operations in aviation.

As a Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) designated provider of meteorological services in the UK, we provide a variety of different services supporting pilots, airlines and airports. Our global weather forecast and data services support the aviation industry globally too, such as in our role as one of only two World Area Forecast Centres (WAFC) and one of nine Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres (VAAC).

Commercial Aviation

Making informed and well-timed decisions is key to maintaining schedules and optimising safety in aviation, and we have extensive experience in supporting the aviation industry to manage weather and climate risks. We offer a range of products, data and consultancy services and training across all sectors - airlines, airports, air traffic control and management, ground handling, airport construction and maintenance - to help increase safety and achieve operational efficiencies and cost savings.

Road

We offer a range of services and innovative solutions to support in managing maintenance and optimising operations and safety throughout the year, whatever the weather. From managing the strategic road network, local road infrastructure or providing services managing access to individual premises, we have a forecast solution to suit all. 

Rail

Adverse weather is a significant contributor to performance issues, cancellations of services and safety incidents in the rail industry. Integrating our expert weather and climate knowledge with industry expertise, our specialist forecasts, datasets and consultancy services are designed to help rail operators run their services safely and on time all year round.

Marine

Accurate and reliable weather forecasting plays a vital role in minimising risk in operational planning at sea to optimise both safety and efficiency and minimise costs. We offer a range of sector-specific solutions to minimise unexpected downtime and manage operational thresholds.

From identifying weather windows and optimal locations, to providing telephone briefings and the deployment of meteorologists and buoys on site, our 24/7 services are designed to help minimise weather-related risk and uncertainty, reduce operational costs, and ensure safety at sea.

Understanding the impact of the weather and climate is vital for the development and operation of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) and other intelligent mobility solutions. The capability to embed real-time weather data into vehicle and infrastructure systems has the potential to further improve overall safety and efficiency. We have a dedicated team of experienced consultants able to provide access to our world-class weather and climate data, research and expertise.
